Episodes of prolonged drought coupled with heat waves (ie drought and heat combination)
can have a devastating impact on agricultural production and crop yield. It is therefore not …

Climate change is adversely affecting wheat yields as the associated rising temperatures
damage its reproductive physiology. Heat stress affects wheat at various stages of growth …

Myriad definitions have been used for the term heat stress, but here it is defined as a
deleterious response to elevated temperature. For cereal crops, heat stress reduces yield or …

Ambient temperatures have increased since the beginning of the century and are predicted
to continue rising under climate change. Such increases in temperature can cause heat …

With current annual production at over 600 million tonnes, wheat is the third largest crop in
the world behind corn and rice, and an essential source of carbohydrates for millions of …

Abstract Characterization of drought environment types (ET s) has proven useful for
breeding crops for drought‐prone regions. Here, we consider how changes in climate and …

We start by outlining the general effects of climatic variability and temperature extremes on
wheat yields in the context of extreme event effects on crop processes for climatic impacts …

Increased climate variability and higher mean temperatures are expected across many
world regions, both of which will contribute to more frequent extreme high temperatures …

Climate change is caused by the release of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Climate
change will impact many activities, but its effects on agricultural production could be acute …

Climate extremes cause significant winter wheat yield loss and can cause much greater
impacts than single extremes in isolation when multiple extremes occur simultaneously …
